Aziraphale:
Incidentally, someone asked a couple of pages back (or maybe last week or something) about how much Claire knew about Faye's back story. Go back one comic from the one above.

Instead I think it's a matter of him understanding just how grave a violation of trust and personal space it would be for him to pursue that particular topic. I mean the little guy might be a bit of a sadist who enjoys messing with people, but he's not without decency, and he does actually care about Marten and his friends, albeit in his own strange way sometimes. :P

Plus there's the fact that Marten rarely draws a line with Pintsize. Because of that, on the rare occasion that Marten does put his foot down, Pintsize probably understands that he's super duper serious, and he'd better not push it. lol

Does Pintsize even know Claire is transgendered? Aside from the paddling (the only known instance that Claire has met Pinysize), has Marten even told Pintsize this fact?

Dark Matter:

--- Quote from: Oenone on 12 Feb 2015, 19:53 ---IDK, I guess I miss sassy Claire. In my head canon, Claire's had to develop a barbed tongue to defend herself and her brother, because of her gender identity, his general weirdness, and whatever family dynamics led to her instant judgment of Tai. The meekness is weird to me, because it doesn't match her age in my head (she's in an MA program) or her earlier personality. Playing the ingenue doesn't suit her.

It doesn't feel that out of character to me. I feel like Claire has always had both a sassy, snarky side and a more shy, vulnerable side, which come out in different situations. That's part of what I relate to about her character, because I also tend to swing between those types of behavior depending on the situation I'm in.

Quantum Glass:
Oh, he's alive.

Y'know, funny thing is, I can't actually imagine Pintsize doing anything to deserve whatever happened to him. He's a little troll, sure, but he always tried to help Marten when the guy felt down.

Mind, he wasn't good at it, but he always tried, and I can't imagine him (Deliberately) angering Faye, given the current circumstances.

Which is...problematic. Friends don't break friends.

It's a good thing that he doesn't seem to be broken, then. Or affected at all, for that matter.
